A one-day satellite meeting on vaccines, access to treatment and the law
will be held on Friday, 5 July 2002, in Barcelona, Spain, just prior to AIDS
2002. The meeting is being organized by the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal
Network, the AIDS Law Project (South Africa), and the HIV/AIDS Unit of The
Lawyers Collective (India), and will be co-hosted by UNAIDS. Two issues will
be examined in substantial depth:
1. HIV VACCINES: Participants will discuss the inadequacies of current
approaches; the obstacles to vaccine development; strategies to mobilize
greater support for vaccine development; and strategies to facilitate the
widest possible access to HIV vaccines once they are developed.
2. ACCESS TO TREATMENT: Participants will discuss strategies for using the
law to advance access to treatment for people living with HIV/AIDS in
developing countries =AD both directly through the use of legal proceedings,
and indirectly by using legal norms to complement other forms of advocacy.
Background papers on each issue will be distributed in advance to
participants and presented in plenary. Most of the day will be spent in
workshops where each issue can be explored in detail. Registration is
limited to 100 participants on a first-come, first-served basis.
